i'm developing an application for android that is already done for IOS, is not big problem.
the thing is that my boss want it to be exactly the same, but one of the menus is the problem, is like a slide menu but with zoom and a background image, anyone have any idea how can i do this, i already google it but no results :(, a library would help.
here is a picture with the menu for IOS.
I don't think if it would be an effective solution but you can use a RelativeLayout.
Put the selection part behind in a LinearLayout then put a framelayout front to contain list fragments. This way you shouldn't use an action bar to have absolutely same looking with iOs version.
When someone clicks open button apply an animation to your framelayout. scale it by %75 and move it 25% in y coordinate and move it %50 in x coordinate. When buttons in your LinearLayout apply a reverse animation to your FrameLayout. If swap button clicked change your fragment with new one. You can also aply a transaction animation to your fragments.
I hope you know how to handle this stuff. If no I can do my best to code an example.
EDIT:
Don't forget to set your flame layout unclickable when you move it to right side.

I think I found your answer. I came across this in a list of libraries it is 3.8 on the list https://github.com/Trinea/android-open-project/tree/master/English%20Version

I'm a beginner on Android development and am trying to build my first app. I have an activity with a round target image and I'd like to make this image vanish at scroll down and display an another image instead that would snap to the toolBar (see the example images below).
I've researched this, but have only found information about using effects in apps where the image just vanishes. Perhaps, the Coordinator Layout could be useful here?
Initial state of my layout
After scrolling up, I want to change to a state like this.
To summarize, I have to :
- make my round Image go behind de ToolBar
- make the rectangular ImageView2 appear below the ToolBar
- Align my buttons (I guess it's about speed ? The one in the middle should go faster or something like that).
- Display new infos coming from below
You should surely use CoordinatorLayout. The point is that you should add custom behavior to your ImageView.
You can see an example here:

I am new to Android development, and I am wondering if there are any samples available to create a panel similar to the photo/checkin/mood/write panel at the bottom of the google+ app on android.
1) Are they 4 buttons? How do I style the buttons to look like that?
2) I want to auto hide the panel on scroll down, but show on scroll up.
Appreciate if anyone could guide me in the right direction.
Cheers
To show\hide panel - use animation.
This panel can be linearLayout with 4 buttons.
Do detect what've been scrolled look at: Synchronise ScrollView scroll positions - android
you can use linearlayout and in that take for imageview..when scrolling you can show/hide linearlayout..and for view you can use linearlayout color as black and this imageview images..
OK, so I implemented exactly what you trying to do only without the buttons.
After lot of hours spending googling around I found this one - https://gist.github.com/imminent/4576886 by Dandre' Allison, which is a specific implantation of quick return bar for a list view which is little more trickier from other view components. For more implementations of quick return bar and other scrolling tricks you can use Roman Nurik's Scrolling Tricks library here https://plus.google.com/u/0/+RomanNurik/posts/1Sb549FvpJt and here http://www.androidviews.net/2012/11/scrolling-tricks/. I just saw that there is another quick return bar for list view implenation by Lars Werkman in https://github.com/LarsWerkman/QuickReturnListView which I never tested. I used the Dandre' Allison snippet which works great.
Answering your first question.
all the buttons are either in ImageButton, or in ImageView that make it clickable. it's either you can lay it out in LinearLayout or RelativeLayout, well it's depends on how you want to make it.
Try Using split action bar this will basically do the task for you.
Android has many useful tools when coming to views and screens and layouts.
Description: While playing my game (running around as a zombie bear eating humans) I would like to allow the player to access an items menu via sliding a menu from the right side/edge of the screen. Or at the least be able to access a game options menu (not game settings which would be the menu button).
What would be the best fit for description?
P.S How would I make a question like this less like a discussion and more like a straight forward programming question when I don't really know what's available to do this.
Also, if this is the case, please point me to another location to ask a question that may require a discussion.
Thank You!
Try looking at the SlidingDrawer class.
PS I personally don't see a problem with how you have worded your question if you are looking for ideas of views/widgets you need to perform a specific function/effect.
My first thought, and for a simple approach (this wouldn't be animated or dragged really), would be using a RelativeLayout where the portion representing the menu was initially set so that it's visibility were GONE, except for a small tab or arrow or something. When that tab/arrow is touched, the visibility of the View for the menu could be toggled to VISIBLE.
With visibility set to GONE, a view is not drawn or considered in any part of the layout pass when the screen is drawn.
You could populate a listview with some icons and when an particular icon is selected, then figure out which one was selected and then execute some function and hide the sidebar using an animation. I've never developed a game, so I'm not too sure how far it deviates from the standard, but I wish you the best of luck :) ! If you post the source let me know would love to test your game and see how you work with the source!
I'm trying to create a "scrollable" layout in Android. Even using developers.android.com, though, I feel a little bit lost at the moment. I'm somewhat new to Java, but not so much that I feel I should be having these issues--being new to Android is the bigger problem right now.
The layout I'm trying to create should scroll in a sort of a "grid". I THINK what I'm looking for is the Gallery view, but I'm really lost as to how to implement it at the moment. I want it to "snap" to center the frame, like in the actual Gallery application.
Essentially, if I had a photo gallery of 9 pictures, the idea is to scroll between them up/down AND side to side, in a 3x3 manner. Doesn't need to dynamically adjust, or anything like that, I just want a grid I can scroll through.
I'm also not asking for anyone to give me explicit code for it--I'm trying to learn, more than anything. But pointing me in the right direction for helpful layout programming resources would be greatly appreciated, and confirming if it's a Gallery view I'm looking for would also be really helpful.
EDIT: To clarify, the goal is to have ONE item on screen at a time. If you scroll between one item and the next, the previous one leaves the screen, and the new one snaps into place. So if it were a photo gallery, each spot on the grid would take up the entire screen size, approximately, and would be flung out of the viewable area when you slide across to the next photo, in either direction. (Photos are just an example for illustration purposes)
This page gives a good summary of the different built in layout objects. From your description a GridView or possibly a TableLayout might work. GalleryView looks to be horizontal only.
I believe GridView is what you're looking for. Here's a tutorial: http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-gridview.html
You should check out the ViewPager widget, which is available in the Android compatibility package. I spent a loooong time trying to get the Gallery widget to behave properly, but finally settled on a ViewPager which returned ImageView objects instead. Works like a charm.
Achieving a true "dropdown" effect (as seen in Adobe's Photoshop Mobile app for Android, image below) has proven challenging using Androids built-in methods.
As others on Stackoverflow have told me, editing the style of a dropdown list view of an Android spinner is limiting.
How is this dropdown effect done?
(I can't seem to get an image to show, so here's a link: Adobe Photoshop Mobile for Android
After viewing the Adobe slideshow I think the way I would attempt to get that to work, using the Android Java SDK, would be to create a ListView object with a transparent background, and then dynamically hide/show it in that position when the menu button is clicked by setting the View's visibility to VISIBLE or GONE.
Getting a ListView to be transparent shouldn't be that difficult. I'd look into AbsoluteLayout to get it to hover over everything in that spot.
Another option might be to display the ListView in a custom Dialog that you've written, again positioning it in that exact spot on the screen so that it looks like a menu extending from the button that was clicked.
It's probably done using low-level draw functions.
